The mineral claims cover a large portion of the Centennial Stock which host several past gold producers. The property is situated at the south end of the historic Wawa Gold Mining Camp and is easily accessible from Wawa by major roads (Highway 17 and High Falls Road).

The South Wawa Gold Property contains the Valentti Gold Vein which was trenched and sampled in the early 1990's with channel samples ranging up to 15.4 g/t gold over 2.6 metres. The Valentti Gold Vein averages 4 g/t gold over the 3.4 metre width and 60 metre length of the exposed vein.

Argo Gold believes follow-up exploration activity is warranted at the South Wawa Gold Property particularly because there has been no drilling at the Valentti Gold Vein.

The Company has not yet completed the work necessary to verify the past exploration results and since some of these results are historical in nature and some results predate National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") standards, these results should not be relied upon. In addition, a qualified person has not completed sufficient work to verify these historical results and the Company is not treating these results as current. The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in NI 43-101 and reviewed and approved by Delio Tortosa, P.Eng., a "Qualified Person" as defined by NI 43-101 and a Technical Advisor for Argo Gold.

NEITHER THE CANADIAN SECURITIES EXCHANGE NOR ITS REGULATIONS SERVICES PROVIDER HAVE REVIEWED OR ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS RELEASE.
